Lotto Draw #842 — Numbers & Results Review
Saturday, 23 August 2003 · The official Lotto NZ winning numbers for this draw — 6 main balls, bonus ball and Powerball — plus how my 30 lines measured up.
Saturday, August twenty-third brought Draw #842, and the machine settled on 1 4 7 24 27 28, with ten tucked into the supplementary spot and three sealing the Powerball. Out of my thirty careful picks, nothing climbed to three matching mains, though twenty-four main-ball touches across the board suggest the numbers were dancing close to our guesses. Line four, built around those hot selections, shared two matches with the main draw—a gentle nudge rather than a full victory. Five tickets did catch that lucky three on the Powerball, and three others brushed against the bonus. It wasn’t the jackpot run we hoped for, but sometimes the game just asks us to laugh, keep our fingers crossed, and play for fun until next weekend.
